Arch Rock PhyNet Server manages interconnected collections of IP-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs) using a common web services architecture and web browser interface. Arch Rock IP-series nodes can be located throughout a building, machine room or harsh outdoor environment and be connected to PhyNet Server via standard IP networking.
Arch Rock PhyNet™ Server
The PhyNet Server presents node data on a web-based user console that lets users setup, monitor and manage multiple WSNs. One PhyNet Server supports one or more PhyNet Routers on the same local area network (LAN) or across multiple networks with the following services:

- Translate embedded sensor applications into web services
- Provide a web-based console for the setup, diagnostics and management of multiple WSNs.
- Display a deployment map
- Discover, register, move and configure nodes; enable/disable sensors or show their battery status
- Re-program heterogeneous nodes with pre-compiled embedded applications Over-the-Air (OTA)
- Access and setup PhyNet Routers
- Graphically display performance statistics; and set reporting intervals, thresholds and alerts
